Suggestion for the Frontiersman

As a subscriber of the Frontiersman for 44 years, I read our local paper to get an honest reflection of the health of our community. We educate students to be hopefully ready to critically think, to observe and to know when someone is trying to dupe them or pressure them unjustly. The Frontiersman must expect itself to periodically check how high its bar is raised before printing. To be pressured to retract accurate statements about the banning of books from a very low bar (5 pro-ban school board members) from which the school board's pressure is not yet clearly known or exposed disappoints. There is Work to do. Let's use our collective intelligence and pride in community to critical think and write about the long overdue, fair contract that will be offered to teachers instead.
